Seite 345 - Who but must laugh if such a man there be ? Who would not weep if Atticus were he?
Seite 408 - A great multitude of people are continually talking of the Law of Nature; and then they go on giving you their sentiments about what is right and what is wrong: and these sentiments, you are to understand, are so many chapters and sections of the Law of Nature.

Seite 147 - Cole aim has been to mention, with freedom and impartiality, the writers on all fides of the different queftions, that hereby the mind of the ftudent may be fully enlarged, and that he may be able, with the greater advantage, to profecute his fearches after truth.
